It's a similar form to some from the 1960's I remember. If that's a plastic or even aluminum top seal than I'll go with that. Maybe a bit earlier for aluminum.

Looks more like a lead seal to me, which would suggest it's quite a bit older than the 1960's. I'm guessing it's more likely pre-1920, but getting an exact date is pretty hard for European bottles.
